North Carolina Injury Attorney Referrals
We built our law firm on attorney referrals and taking on hard liability cases (because of our background as defense lawyers) that other firms believed had little chance of success. Now, most of our cases come from other attorneys. A referral from another lawyer is the highest compliment we receive. It means the attorney trusts our firm to deliver maximum case value while providing exceptional service to their clients.
Referrals can also be in a client’s best interest. But if you trust us with your client, we believe you deserve to share in our recovery. That’s why we offer generous fee-sharing agreements with other lawyers in compliance with North Carolina’s ethical guidelines.
Whether it is a single, one-time referral or your are interested in developing a referral relationship with Counsel Carolina, our partners welcome the opportunity to connect and discuss your needs.
Common reasons attorneys refer cases to us:
They don’t handle personal injury or worker's’ compensation claims
They practice law in a different state and are not admitted to practice in North Carolina
They don’t have the resources or staffing to devote to the case
They have a conflict of interest that prevents them from taking a client’s case
They prefer to work in conjunction with an injury lawyer to gain more experience in certain types of cases/injuries
We’ve Paid Over $1,000,000 in Referral Fees
In less than five years, we’ve paid over $1,000,000 in referral fees to partnering lawyers and law firms for sending us their injured clients. In each of those cases, our North Carolina injury lawyers built strong cases based on extensive investigations, working with leading experts, and using our firm’s resources and networks to bear. After carrying the risk and litigation expenses, our firm then paid generous referral fees to the referring lawyer or law firm. There is no reason to turn down or turn away injury claims when referral partners (like our firm) exist.
